We're at the halfway point of the the 100 Day Hustle! Well, we will be on the 11th. If you've been joining in with the Hustle, you have until November 11th to link up your Halfway Point post, so let us know what you've achieved. Or, if you're like me, what you have completely failed to achieve!
So, shall we have a little recap on what I said I'd do and whether I've done it?
1. Chair cushions for mum, not even started. I haven't even taken the fabric out of the bag! - Progress on this one! I've taken the fabric out of the bag and put it on the sofa and I've orderd some zips. What? That's not progress? OK then...
2. Finish the 2 tea wallets I started before Mother's Day! - Erm... nope.
3. Make a second quilt for Jacob - and no again.
4. A new handbag for me. Much as I love the one I have, I'd like one with a top zip - Yep, no I haven't done this
5. Finish the crochet toy I'm making for Jacob - no information as I don't want to spoil the surprise - a very tiny amount of progress. 1 part of the 5 part toy is completed!
6. The bathroom curtain! - and we're back to no again!
7. Items for the craft fair
- Note book covers - no
- Purses - yes! I've made 8
- Bags - another no
- Bookmarks - and another
- Brooches - more nos
- Jewellery - and a yes! I've made some peyote star necklaces
- Flowers - another yes, I've made 20
- Tea towels - and I think we'll finish on a no.
Hmmm. Not exactly an overwhelming success. I'm going to stick with this list, but I am going to change the craft fair bit as I have a proper plan in place (sort of...), so my new list is as follows:
1. Chair cushions for mum, not even started.
2. Finish the 2 tea wallets I started before Mother's Day!
3. Make a second quilt for Jacob
4. Finish the crochet toy I'm making for Jacob
5. The bathroom curtain!
6. Items for the craft fair

Good luck with it, your craft fair stall sounds amazing :-)
ReplyDeleteThat's an impressive list good luck!
ReplyDeleteStill you've done a ton of crafts! Good luck getting ready for your craft show. Mine's tomorrow and I am so stressed that I don't have enough stuff to sell, yet I know it's more than last year.
